- Project news
- The Tag & Assess drive has now concluded. Over 15 members helped to assess over 31,000 articles. During the drive, all of our Start and Unassessed class articles were reasssessed. The top three reviewers were Big Bird (5,200), Pjoef (2,650), and Peppage (2,390). Thank you to all who assisted with the drive.
- The Spotlight cleanup listing could use more participation. The first 50 articles have been reviewed, but there are still several hundred left. The listing will ensure that our project's older GA/FAs still meet the good and featured criteria. Please choose an article and help with either the images, prose, or citations. Helping to find reliable revisions now will make it much easier to maintain the articles in the future. Help ensure that our project continues to present quality articles to readers and provide great examples for new editors. This important task should be undertaken by more than just a few editors. Instructions and examples can be found on the listing's page.
- Our project currently has over 64,100 film-related articles, with 63,000 that have been assessed by our assessment department! Remember to always add the
{{Film|class=}} template to a film article's talk page so the project can get a better idea of what work still needs to be done. Below is a table showing a breakdown of our articles by class. Many of our unassessed articles have been reviewed thanks to participation in the Tag & Assess drive. This month, let's try and get all of the unassessed article reviewed (we're currently at just over 1,000 articles). It has been awhile since our project had no unassessed articles, and with so many articles under our scope, it will be helpful to get it back under a manageable level.
- Based on views, the top five most popular articles from our project this month were: Clash of the Titans (2010 film), Kick-Ass (film), Avatar (2009 film), Internet Movie Database, and Iron Man 2. For a list of our project's top 1,000 most popular articles, see here. Consider helping to improve one of these articles that is seen by thousands to millions of people each month.
- Spotlight Update: Multiple films and film-related articles have reached GA and FA status in April 2010.
